DOI: 10.1128/aac.01672-23
Abstract: ABSTRACT Carbapenemase-producing Enterobacterales (CPEs) are one of the top priority antimicrobial-resistant pathogens. Among CPEs, those producing acquired metallo-β-lactamases (MBLs) are considered particularly problematic as few agents are active against them. Imipenemase (IMP) is the most… read more here.
